Hello Hello everyone! good-ness!

well, I just finished my sleep test and am getting a machine n the next two days (oh! the WAITING!) Since I started suffering with Central apnea, I've gained a lot of weight. question: will my weight start to come off after I start using my machine? :?: :?: :shock:

I've lost about 40lbs and counting. I have more energy to do things like take an aquafit class. :lol: :lol:

As BabyD says, if you can lick the apnea, you will get a spring back in your step and feel like doing a lot more things. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!
